Practical Suggestions for Kindergartners, Primary Teachers and Mothers by Jeannette R Gregory, 1893
 
'Practical Suggestions for Kindergartners, Primary Teachers and Mothers' by Jeannette R Gregory was published by C B Woodward and Co in St Louis in 1893.

The work provides a programme of work for each of the 40 weeks of the kindergarten year, many of which include paperfolding elements.

The groundforms and designs referred to in the weekly programmes are explained in more detail in the Appendix.
